Future Shop now a thing of the past

Six suspects sought

in trio of Langley thefts

MONIQUE TAMMINGATimes Reporter

The future for big box retail in Langley and across Canada isn’t looking so bright this week, with Lang-ley’s Future Shop closing its doors abruptly on Satur-day and Target to soon follow.

Future Shop, an electronic retail store, papered up the doors and closed for good at the Langley Power Centre on 200 Street and the Langley Bypass, joining 130 stores across the country. Employees were given no notice of the plan to close the stores, according to some media reports.

The signs on the door say the store is permanently closed. However, the voice mail message for the Lang-ley location says it will re-open as Best Buy on Satur-day, April 4. Best Buy already has a store in Langley at 20202 66 Avenue.

Best Buy, which bought all the Future Shops in 2001, made the sudden announcement that is was shutting down 66 stores and turning another 65 into Best Buys across Canada.

There are an estimated 1,500 job losses to go along with the closures. But Best Buy is honouring all Future Shop returns, warranties, gift certifi cates and services, the company said on its website page. It also plans to fully pay all existing lease payments on stores that will not reopen.

In the same mall, the Mexx clothing store is papered up. That retail company shut down all its Canadian stores a few weeks ago.

Just a short distance away at Willowbrook Shopping Centre, Target shoppers have a week left before that retail store closes for good.

Target is closing all 133 stores it opened across Cana-da less than two years ago. Most Targets in Metro Van-couver are anchor tenants and are connected to large malls, as is the case in Langley. Here, Target took over an existing Zellers store and did extensive interior and exterior renovations before opening in the spring of 2013.

Target has already closed some B.C. stores, in Chil-liwack, Cranbrook and Maple Ridge. There is no word on what might replace the Target store at Willowbrook.

Langley RCMP are asking for the public’s help to locate six sus-pects in connection with three separate robberies that took place during the past month.

In each case, police are looking for a man and a woman.

The fi rst incident took place on Feb. 25, when a wallet was stolen from a vehi-cle outside a business in the 26500 block of Gloucester Way.

One of the victim’s credit cards was used at a gas station down the street. The cou-ple is believed to have been driving a red 1999 Pontiac Transport pas-senger van. They have also been linked to a sage green 2004 Ford Freestar passenger van.

The next incident took place a month lat-er, on March 26, when a couple entered the Langley City 7-Eleven store. Police allege they stole several phone chargers valued at ap-proximately $120.

That same day (March 26) police were called to an apartment complex in the 5400 block of 203 Street where a break-and-en-ter had occurred over-night.

DAN FERGUSONTimes Reporter

A Federal Court judge in Vancouver has reserved decision on an application by some Langley residents to overturn a Na-tional Energy Board (NEB) decision.

The NEB denied them funding to take part in hearings on the Kinder Morgan pipeline application to twin its oil pipe-line.

The three-hour hearing took place Mon-day, March 23 before Justice John O’Keefe.

The applicants describe themselves as residents of the Fort Langley fl ood plain area, near the Salmon River.

At issue is the NEB decision last year to deny the group participant funding, which is money to help cover the costs of par-ticipating in the review of the pipeline proposal, including legal fees, funding of independent studies, travel and other ex-penses.

The residents say that while Kinder Morgan has announced it now plans to run the new pipeline through the hillside above the Salmon River fl ood plain and through the Redwoods Golf Course, it has not removed the Salmon River fl ood plain area from its route maps.

Participant funding would allow the res-idents to carry out their own study of the impact the pipeline would have on the area, they say.

Prior to the court hearing, Byron Smith, one of the residents, said the NEB refused to explain its decision to deny them fund-

ing when he travelled to Calgary to meet with the NEB representative who is over-seeing the application.

“We are feeling frustrated and neglect-ed,” Smith said.

He says he expects the judge will rule on the application in the next few weeks.

Meanwhile, Redwoods Golf Course has re-ceived little information on what the pipe-line company plans to do on its property.

Doug Hawley, general manager of the course, which is owned by the Township of Langley but leased to Redwoods, said last week “there has been no conversa-tion on route alignment” with Kinder Morgan.

“I have not seen a map of the proposed route,” he said.

He has been told that nothing will hap-pen on the property in 2015 or 2016, which has allowed him to take bookings “two years out.” However, he does need to have plenty of advance notice because of the many special events which are booked at the course, including weddings and recep-tions, corporate events and golf tourna-ments.

He has been told by Kinder Morgan rep-resentatives that testing will likely begin near the southwest corner of the course, in the vicinity of 217A Street, but he does not know exactly what that will entail.

“I really want to know more, because it affects me (the business) every day,” he told The Times.

— with fi les from Frank BucholtzByron Smith of Fort Langley, who has been seeking more clarity on the Kinder Morgan pipe-line proposal, was at a roadside rally against the pipeline on Feb. 8 in Langley.

DAN FERGUSON Langley Times


Another rally is planned to protest Kind-er Morgan’s proposed pipeline expansion. It will take place on Saturday, April 11 in Fort Langley.

This time protesters are going to march from McMillan Island to the Fort Langley Community Hall, said Kwantlen First Na-tion member Brandon Gabriel, who is once again one of the organizers.

He helped organize a protest on the side of the road on 232 Street on Feb. 5, which attracted a crowd of about 80.

“Join in respect of the unceded Kwan-

tlen and neighbouring First Nation Terri-tories, for a march and rally to celebrate our home and protect it from destructive oil bitumen projects like the Kinder Mor-gan pipeline proposal; proposed to see 890,000 barrels of oil travel daily through sacred lands and waters,” said Gabriel, in a poster that has been circulated about the march.

This march will begin around 12:30 p.m. at the Kwantlen First Nations sports park on McMillan Island. The group will march across the Jacob Haldi Bridge, then proceed south on Glover Road to gather at the Fort hall, where speeches are planned.

At the last rally, around 80 people arrived to protest across from a private property on Rawlison Crescent where Kinder Mor-gan was doing test drilling for the pro-posed pipeline.

Kinder Morgan operates its existing Trans Mountain pipeline, and it runs through parts of North Langley, Fort Langley, Wal-nut Grove and then heads west into Port Kells.

It plans to twin the existing pipeline, which began operating in 1953, through most of Langley. However, a new route will be sought west of Glover Road, to avoid taking the second pipeline through a de-

veloped urban area in Walnut Grove.The pipeline is planned to divert from

the existing route near Redwoods Golf Course, and go through the course to link up with the CN tracks near 216 Street and 96 Avenue. At that point, it will parallel the railway line.

Kinder Morgan is looking to triple its ca-pacity for oil which would be piped from Alberta through numerous B.C. communi-ties to the Burnaby marine terminal. Some would be used at the existing Chevron refi nery, but the vast majority would be shipped as crude oil via tanker to Asian customers.


It’s not the welcome to the neighbour-hood anyone would want, but Jason Bains is trying to be optimistic.

Bains has spent the last year pouring $400,000 in renovations into a Langley City building at 20279 56 Ave. to open a infant and toddler licensed daycare.

Among the renovations is creating four care rooms in the inside, and creating a landscaped outside play area with raised

garden beds and turf. He went to Vancouver Island on Friday

and forgot to put the alarm on. When he came back to Educare Early Learning day-care, the back door was wide open and items were missing.

“I’m still in shock that anyone would de-cide to steal from a child care centre,” said Bains.

The items taken from the centre in-clude a Samsung monitor, Mac mini computer, blue Bose Soundlink stereo, a

Moneris payment terminal, coffee mak-er, microwave, toaster oven, two Ryobi power drills, Ryobi drillbit set, and Canon PowerShot camera.

“I just wanted to let the community know what happened, just in case any-one saw anything or heard anything,” he said.

The theft has set the daycare back. In-stead of opening on April 1, he has post-poned opening until May 1. He has notifi ed parents about the delay and he said they

have been very understanding.The new daycare can hold 48 infants

and toddlers, from ages 12 months to 36 months. There are 12 ECE certifi ed teachers and three teachers to every classroom. Introductory rate is $988 per month.

If you would like to learn more about Ed-ucare Early Learning and see pictures of the brand-new centre, go to www.ecel.ca.

Next week, The Times will return to publishing on Wednesday and Friday.

The shift from the Tues-day and Thursday sched-ule, in effect since 2011, will take effect the week of April 5.

In a related move, the Langley Advance is switch-ing from publishing twice a week to a single edition on Thursday.

The Advance is one of a number of newspaper titles, related publica-tions and digital proper-

ties which Black Press, the owner of The Times, acquired from Glacier Media. The sale, fi rst an-nounced in December, was completed last Tues-day.

The Aldergrove Star, also published by Black Press, will continue to publish a weekly edition on Thurs-day.

In the Lower Mainland, Black Press also pur-chased the Surrey Now and Maple Ridge Times community papers.

Other papers sold by Glacier to Black were The Nanaimo Daily News, The Harbour City Star, the Alberni Valley Times, the Cowichan Citizen, Parks-ville Oceanside Star, Tofi no/Ucluelet Westerly News, the Comox Valley Echo, and Campbell River Courier.

In a separate trans-action, Black Press sold the Tri-City News, Burn-aby New Westminster News Leader and the Richmond Review to Gla-cier Media.

A Langley City resident who had $10,000 worth of property stolen, including heir-loom necklaces, a rosary and an engraved watch, is hoping someone has seen some of the unique items.

On Feb. 17, someone broke into the resi-dence in Langley City.

Over $10,000 in property was stolen, includ-ing jewelry, electronics, car keys, a camera, an external hard drive and a palm massager.

There are a number of distinctive items the public may be able to assist police to locate in-cluding two custom Corrine Hunt silver men’s

ring engraved with a Coast Salish design, cus-tom Wolfgang Krantz gold and silver men’s watch with W. Krantz signature and “Merry Christmas Denton” engraved on the back.

Also taken were two heirloom pearl neck-laces, an heirloom rosary, wallet with First Nation skulls on it and Tippman TPS paint-ball pistol.

If you have seen any of these items or know anything about this break-in, call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200, or if you wish to remain anonymous, call Crimestop-pers at 1-800-222-TIPS.

Home prices will increasingly soar beyond what is affordable to most families — not just in Vancouver itself, but in other Lower Mainland cities as well.

That’s the outlook in a new re-port from Vancity Savings Cred-it Union, which projects the av-erage home price in Vancouver will exceed $2.1 million by 2030 and require more than 100 per cent of average household in-come to pay the mortgage.

In 15 years time, Langley City will be only community in Met-ro Vancouver with affordable real estate, according to the re-port, titled Downsizing the Cana-dian Dream: Homeownership Real-ities for Millennials and Beyond.

Besides Langley City, only Maple Ridge, New Westmin-ster, Pitt Meadows and Port Co-quitlam can currently be called affordable, the report says, with the mortgage payments for the average home consuming just under 32 per cent of household income — CMHC’s recommend-ed limit.

“However, if current trends continue, even this will not last,” the report said. “Unafford-ability will steadily radiate out-wards.”

Burnaby, Richmond and White Rock had house debt service ra-tios of around 30 per cent in the early 2000s, it says, but that hit 46 per cent in 2014 and is pro-jected to rise to between 60 and 70 per cent in 2030.

Surrey’s ratio is projected to climb from 39 to 48 per cent in 2030 and Langley Township’s would rise from 35 to 43 per cent.

By 2030, payments for a typi-cal North Vancouver home will consume 100 per cent of in-come, compared to 73 per cent now, and the average Vancouver home will hit 108 per cent, up from 76 per cent.

“The average household will be resolutely priced out of the urban market,” it says.

Factors driving the change are increasing population growth and the region’s constrained geography, Vancity says.

“The resulting sce-nario will see single de-tached homes become a scarce luxury,” it says.

While detached house affordability climbs out of reach, condos will be increasingly in fashion, but they too are getting more costly.

Vancouver condos should rise in price from an average of $407,500 now to $810,500 in 2030, the report says.

Condos will be unaffordable in Vancouver by 2018 and in Burnaby by 2023, it projects.

“However the good news is that condos in all other com-munities will remain largely affordable,” it says, estimating 2030 debt-service ratios for condos at as little as 14 per cent

in Surrey and 20 to 30 per cent in Coquitlam, Port Moody, New Westminster and Richmond.

The report recommends vari-ous steps to increase or protect affordable housing, including the creation of zones perma-nently dedicated for affordable housing, similar to the Agricul-tural Land Reserve.

Another suggestion is that the province take part of the nearly $1 billion it collects each year

from the Property Transfer Tax and dedicate it to affordable housing.

Individuals who can’t reason-ably afford a home should in-stead save and invest money to build equity over the long term, it says.

Families are uged to consid-er unusual multi-family living and owning arrangements like housing co-ops, co-ownership and intergenerational commu-nity living.

Are more taxes needed to reduce foreign investment in Metro Vancouver real estate?

Given that gas prices remain high, is government ac-tion needed to pressure gas retailers to lower prices??of the week

Questionwe asked you:Last Week

A report issued by Vancity Credit Union last week is deeply disturbing.

The report says that, if there is no signifi -cant downturn in the Lower Mainland hous-ing market, Langley will be the only commu-

nity on Metro Vancouver which will be affordable for most home buyers 15 years from now.

The report states that the average price for housing in Vancouver at that time will be more than $2 million. This is completely unaffordable for most people. Prices in sur-rounding communities will also rise accordingly, and even today, Vancity says housing remains affordable in only fi ve communities — Langley City, Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows, Port Coquitlam and New Westminster.

Do we want this area to be a place where people can only afford to rent? Given that rents are rising as well, even that may not be an option for some people.

There is no question that housing prices have continued to rise due to steady demand. The demand has continued in large part due to record-low interest rates. While it is likely they will stay low for at least as long as the Cana-dian economy faces challenges, sooner or later they will rise.

Housing prices in Vancouver, the North Shore and Rich-mond have also been heavily infl uenced by foreign buyers, who pay high prices in desirable areas, often for homes they will never live in. While there is nothing wrong with foreign investment, the continued blind eye to this activi-ty by all levels of government is very disturbing.

At the very least, non-resident buyers should be paying much higher property purchase tax rates, and should also pay higher property taxes — as is the case in some Amer-ican jurisdictions. This would give the provincial and mu-nicipal governments more revenue and perhaps serve as a slight deterrent.

Ads from the ‘yes’ side in the transit plebiscite say one million more people are coming here. Where will they live, and how will they afford it?

Keeping housing affordable should be a major goal of all levels of government.

Despite some public efforts to stop the change, Mission is scheduled to lose its door-to-door mail delivery beginning this summer.

Mission council’s request to meet with rep-resentatives from Canada Post is merely an

opportunity to get clarifi cation on how the new commu-nity mailbox system will be implemented and what the public can expect from the new service.

Canada Post has already begun its fi ve-year plan to phase out door-to-door delivery.

If some members of the public think the proposed meet-ing will change anything, then they haven’t been paying attention to what has already gone on in the rest of the country.

Communities across Canada have been voicing con-cerns and objections to the new community mailbox pro-gram, to no avail.

In Calgary, one woman had a community mailbox placed on her lawn, just by her kitchen window. She says that no one from Canada Post or the city consulted with her about the location, despite promises from Canada Post to do just that. She merely got a notice in the mail that it was being installed.

Mission council needs to prevent that kind of situation from happening here.

District staff is being consulted on where to place the new community mailboxes, but the locations have not been selected. Staff need to ensure that the locations cho-sen don’t negatively impact homeowners.

Other questions need answers as well. What mail service will be provided for seniors or other people with limited mobility? What happens if the new mailbox is vandalized or robbed? Can mail be picked up at alternate locations?

The district can’t stop the change from happening, but it should do everything it can to manage how the change occurs.

The meeting is a good fi rst step.— Mission City Record

Many changes are nowunderway at The Times

This is the fi nal time you will read my observations in a Tuesday edition of The Times.

As of next week, The Times will shift back to Wednesday and Friday publication dates — the days of the week that we used to publish until 2011.

This is a result of our parent company Black Press taking over the Langley Advance, which will now shift to a Thursday-only pub-lishing schedule. Thus readers and advertisers will be served by Langley-wide publications on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday — three days which seem to be pop-ular with readers and advertisers alike.

The Aldergrove Star, which is also owned by Black Press, will continue to publish Thursday. The Star serves the eastern por-tion of Langley and western Abbotsford.

The Times, which began operations in 1981, started as a Wednesday newspaper. It soon added a Saturday edition. The Sat-urday publication date was changed to Fri-day when a third weekly edition on Sun-days was added in the 1990s. The Sunday edition continued until 2009.

From a news perspective, Wednesday and Friday editions will allow the news staff additional time to gather and prepare information for readers. We expect that there will be more current news in both editions.

Of course, news and information are con-stantly being added and updated at lang-leytimes.com. The Times also is on Face-book and there is often some interesting information there as well.

If you are on Facebook, visit our page and give us a “like.”

The change in publication dates is not the only change at The Times. We welcome a new publisher in Jean Hincks, our former advertis-ing manager, who most recently was publisher of the Burnaby News Leader, which was sold to Glacier Media as part of the transaction which saw The Advance become part of Black Press.

She brings with her a great deal of background and experience in the community newspaper busi-

ness, in Maple Ridge, Burnaby and here at The Times. She is already very familiar with many people in the community and the issues we face. She will be meeting many more in the months to come.

She is also well-known to staff here, and we look forward to working closely with her once again.

Our former publisher, Dwayne Weiden-dorf, served in that position since 2006, and was very highly-regarded in the com-munity. He has left to serve as publisher of the Peace Arch News in South Surrey and the Now Newspaper in Surrey, which was also taken over by Black Press last week.

He served the community in many ca-pacities during his time here, in particular the Langley Memorial Hospital Foundation board and the Gateway of Hope Communi-ty Council.

He took a keen interest in this commu-nity and that will not disappear, as he and his family continue to reside in Langley.

The community newspaper business is changing rapidly due to new technology, but at The Times, we continue to be com-mitted to giving readers the latest about Langley.

Many safeguards in proposed euthanasia billEditor: I am writing in response to the

letter by Benjamin Budlong (The Times, Dec. 24) regarding Bill S-225 on euthana-sia. Euthanasia is an issue that concerns the power of life and death and should not be taken lightly in any circumstanc-es. That being said, it is important to accept that patients who are suffering due to terminal or untreatable illnesses deserve the right to a physician-assisted death.

In 2009, Bill C-384 concerning the “right to die with dignity” was rejected. While Bill C-384 and the new Bill S-225 are funda-mentally the same, S-225 clarifi es in detail the conditions and assessments required for a patient seeking euthanasia.

Bill S-225 offers a number of safeguards to protect the patient. To summarize them, if an adult patient with a terminal or un-treatable illness or disability meets the conditions outlined in S-225 and seeks eu-

thanasia, they may make a request with an assisting physician and a consulting physician. The patient’s consent must be voluntary and in writing in front of two witnesses and both physicians.

As for the witnesses, they cannot be re-lated to the patient, an employee or physi-cian where the patient receives treatment, or entitled to a part of the patient’s estate. This helps in eliminating any vested inter-est.

After that, there is a minimum of a two- week waiting period before the procedure can take place. Upon requesting euthana-sia, the patient must fully understand the procedure and be informed of all alterna-tives for pain control and care. If at any time the patient objects, the procedure will be stopped. All of these safeguards are to ensure the patient has fully and volun-tarily consented to a physician-assisted death.

Nowhere does Bill S-225 include “physio-logical suffering.” But psychological suffer-ing is included.

Like physical illnesses, there are some mental illnesses that are permanent and terminal and cause severe psychological suffering. Examples include Alzheimer’s or dementia.

Budlong argues that euthanasia could be used to end short-term emotional suf-fering, but Bill S-225 clearly states that all illnesses must be untreatable and with no chance of improvement. Short-term psy-chological suffering does not fi t into this category.

If decriminalized, Budlong argues that euthanasia would be used unwillingly on elderly or disabled patients. On the con-trary, there is no evidence to show that this slippery slope would ever become re-ality. The requirement of patient consent is clearly stated in Bill S-225 as “acting vol-

untarily, free from coercion or undue infl u-ence.”

And with the safeguards in place, the pa-tients have the right to revoke their deci-sion at any time. It would be very diffi cult, if not nearly impossible, for a patient to be euthanized against their will. Therefore, there is no evidence to support that those who are elderly or disabled would be en-couraged to seek euthanasia or be discour-aged from living.

Bill S-225 does not promote or encourage euthanasia. Bill S-225 simply provides pa-tients with a right over their own life and death. Those who support the right to eu-thanasia do not believe that life is point-less or a burden. These people just believe that those who suffer from untreatable or terminal illnesses should have the right to end their suffering if they seek it.

Higher minimum wage leadsto more unemployment

Editor: Increasing minimum wage creates more unemployment. Minimum wage is meant for small business. The B.C. Feder-ation of Labour and NDP opposition know nothing about the operation of a small busi-ness. Raising the minimum wage comes with baggage, like in a second marriage.

The baggage is called benefi ts. Here is an example. A small business has fi ve full-time employees, two at $8 per hour and three at $10 per hour, and a fully-paid group insurance plan by the employer (life insur-ance, accidental death insurance, weekly indemnity, extended medical, dental, and vision care). If the minimum wage went to

$10 per hour, the three employees at $10 per hour would have to be paid $12 per hour.

An employer must adjust the pay rates of all the employees if the minimum wage went up. Also the employer’s share of ben-efi ts now increases.

If the minimum wage went to $10 per hour, this sample small business has two choices to make. Those two choices would be to lay off the two employees at $8 per hour, or to increase the selling price of all products sold. All payroll costs have to be passed on to the consumer.

Rude treatment of customer

Letter writer applauded

Let’s not think aheadEditor: Re: Letter from B. Taylor (March

24).Gee, Mr. Taylor — let’s not think ahead

for future generations. Let’s think of as many excuses as we can to vote ‘no.’

And perhaps if enough of us selfi sh self-centred “no more of my money” boomers vote ‘no’ to the tiny 0.5 per cent sales tax, we can leave the follow-ing generations even more of a mess to clean up after us.

That will be on top of the $614 bil-lion national debt, and estimated many many billions in toxic messes like the Gi-ant gold mine fi asco, as well as the cat-astrophic costs of climate change issues

coming at them. These include more fre-quent and drastic weather-related fi re, fl ood, and drought damage, as well as the resultant ever more expensive food.

On top of all this, the boomer-echo generation has been warned to prepare to pay for an exponential increase in health care costs to warehouse a “tsuna-mi” of Alzheimered boomers.

I wonder if they’ll eventually fi nd a far less expensive fi nal solution to re-lieve that problem, to help them pay for all the other inherited challenges we’re leaving them?

R.L. READ,LANGLEY

Editor: I would like to thank B. Taylor of Aldergrove for his well-written opinion on the transit referendum. I was leaning toward the “Yes” side (knowing full well that TransLink was being badly misman-aged).

However, after reading the letter (The Times, March 24), I have reconsidered. Taylor’s letter was both informative and entertaining.

As a mother and grandmother, I can certainly relate to the hand in the cook-

ie jar reference. While better transit is needed, let TransLink and the provin-cial government do what families do when they need more money — budget better and reallocate. In other words, make do.

If and when TransLink gets its act to-gether and shows fi scal responsibility, maybe then the voters would consider adding to the pot.

V. CALLAGHAN,LANGLEY

Editor: On March 16, my good friend’s el-derly mother was feeling unwell, and just happened to pass by a Langley coffee house they both frequent regularly. She politely asked if she could use the washroom, but because they didn’t purchase anything on this particular day, the owner rudely point-ed to the “washroom for patrons only” sign and dismissed her like she was a vagrant.

My friend’s mother was embarrassed, and in obvious distress by this time, but the

owner simply waved her away so she could attend to her next customer.

I believe the owner should have recog-nized her long-time customer and made an exception to her rule. Secondly, what kind of person treats an elderly woman like that at all?

This kind of needless, uncaring treatment is, to me, intolerable.

Referendum No cam-paign leader Jordan Bateman argues the cost estimates of ma-jor projects like the proposed Broadway subway and Surrey light rail network ar-en’t up to date and are likely to run over bud-get.

On top of that, there’s no guarantee yet of $1.5 billion in federal contributions that would be required to fully fund the mayors’ vision.

That creates some uncer-tainty about what trans-portation improvements will be built and when if voters ap-prove the pro-posed Conges-tion Improvement Tax to add 0.5 per cent to the sales tax in Metro Vancouver.

Bateman argues res-idents could say Yes and then watch as the region is forced to shelve or delay some promised improve-

ments. Port Coquitlam

Mayor Greg Moore says more buses and SeaBus service will be deployed in the fi rst

fi ve years, while major rapid tran-sit projects would be built in the back half of the 10-year plan, leaving plenty of time to secure federal and provincial contributions, and he is con-

fi dent they will come.It’s normal, he said,

that senior govern-ments will wait to make contributions for major projects un-til there’s a completed business case.

Bateman contends federal contributions

to the plan may come at the cost of other funding expected by municipalities to build costly sewer treatment or water upgrades, e f f e c t i v e l y forcing local property taxes higher.

Moore counters there’s a strong case for federal help, separate from other municipal projects.

“This is the Pacifi c Gateway and we need goods and people moving around this region.”

Then there’s the province’s rewording of the referendum question to delete the mayors’ references to the “tunnelled” Broadway line and to replace “light rail” with “rapid transit” in Surrey.

Some critics wonder if it may mean cut-and-cover Broadway construction and more costly SkyTrain tech-nology in Surrey, sig-nifi cantly altering the project the City of Sur-rey has spearheaded.

Moore said the shift to more generic word-ing shouldn’t alarm voters.

“The province want-ed to ensure all op-tions were open,” he said. “They didn’t want to predetermine the technology before the business case was done. Fair enough.”

Reassurances have come also from Trans-portation Minister Todd Stone, who has repeatedly endorsed the mayors’ plan and its projects, and urged a Yes vote.

Bateman also claims the plan cost of $7.5 billion has jumped by $200 million.

That comes from a report released March 12 summarizing the plan’s assumed rev-enues and costs that shows the capital cost over 15 years is $7.7 billion and $6.9 billion over 10 years, in 2015 dollars.

“They’re already $200 million over budget,”

Bateman said, predict-ing higher estimates of the big projects will be released after the ref-erendum is over.

“This is just the fi rst of many in-creases.”

The may-ors’ council says all of the numbers are still accurate.

Moore said the $7.5-bil-lion cost is in infl ated rather than 2015 dollars and over 10 years,

which covers all of the projects except the fi nal two years of con-struction of the light rail line from Surrey to Langley – it would be complete in the 12th year.

Moore said the re-port, prepared by a joint working group of TransLink, the may-ors and consultants KPMG, verifi es earlier assumptions are accu-rate and the expected revenues will fully cov-er the operating and capital fi nancing costs.

The report does out-line several uncertain-ties that may affect how the plan rolls out.

They include partner government contribu-tions, capital project costs and the assumed growth rate of revenue from the 0.5 per cent sales tax.

It also cautions that other factors, including demand, population growth, infl ation and consumer preferenc-es, “may not hold over time and will have an unknown impact on fi nal project costs and offsetting revenue.”

Have you noticed a change in your vision? Perhaps your son’s teacher has recommended he get an eye exam? Maybe your mom has complained to you that her laptop screen isn’t as ‘clear’ as it used to be? If this sounds familiar, then it’s time for a visit to the doctors at the Willoughby Doctors of Optometry Clinic. Did you know many eye diseases do not have any symptoms and do not change your vision in the early stages. You may not even know you have an eye disease.

Your vision is important and whether you are 3 or 93, it’s important to have your eyes examined on a regular basis. Dr. Raj Mann and Dr. Maye Doldolea at Willoughby Doctors of Optometry are passionate about eye care and will make sure that your trip to the clinic is a pleasant experience.

The doctors recommend a comprehensive eye exam every year for seniors and children but for healthy adults, every two years is adequate. This is unless you are experiencing a change in your vision and in that case you should book an appointment right away.

Both doctors agree that it’s important to test a child’s vision and eye health starting at age of six to 12 months. In addition they offer a special program for children up to the age of 16. The ‘I AM GROWING’ Program is designed for your child’s specifi c needs and

active lifestyle. A perk of this program is that if your child loses their glasses they can get the replacement lenses for free and you pay for the frame only. Also if within 16 months, their vision changes, their new lenses will be provided free of charge. The clinic offers a complete range of lenses including impact resistant glasses that have full UV protection. Ask them about their specialty lenses to relieve strain for computer and tablet users.

It’s true that eye exams for children and youth up to 19 are covered by their BC Medical. Additionally both doctors recommend that your child’s eyes should also be tested using a digital retinal imaging device called an Optomap®. There is a small additional fee for this scan but getting a baseline retinal image of the health of your children’s eyes, it’s well worth it. The Optomap® technology is included in all adult eye exams.

The Optomap® ultra-wide digital retinal image allows 80% of the retina to be examined in a single view. This is contrary to traditional methods which reveal only 10 - 15% of the retina at one time. It is completely painless and can be performed without dilation. The Willoughby Doctors of Optometry Clinic is only one of two in Langley that offers this technology. If there is a concern for retinal

disease, early detection is vital!Examination of the eyes can reveal other

conditions as well such as Glaucoma, Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) and Diabetic Retinopathy or Keratoconus. To correct Keratoconus, a disease of the cornea, a special lens has been developed. A Scleral Lens will alleviate the effects of this condition and both doctors are very skilled at fi tting their patients comfortably.

Willoughby Optometry Clinic is a full spectrum eye clinic and has an in store dispensary. The clinic can fi t you for contact lenses and for some prescriptions an in-store lab ensures that you can get your new glasses in an hour. Unique to this clinic are exclusive designer frames such as Tiffany & Co., Tory Burch and Michael Kors. There is a large selection of contact lens and despite the misconception that contact lenses are less expensive online, here, some prescriptions are available for less than what you see online.

Prior to your visit, check out the clinic’s website. There, you will be able to request your appointment, read their Eye Library, and discover all the services this state of the art Optometry Clinic provides. Visit www.willoughbyeyecare.ca.

Dr. Raj Mann was born and brought up in Abbotsford. She graduated from the

New England College of Optometry. She is fl uent in Punjabi and practiced at Complete Eye Care in Abbotsford before opening the Willoughby Doctors of Optometry Clinic with Dr. Doldolea. Dr. Mann is passionate about eye care and says that one of the most satisfying aspects of her practice is seeing the impact that good vision has on her patient’s lives. “A loss of vision changes your life both emotionally and physically. When I can help someone see, it is very rewarding,” she said. Dr. Mann is married with two children.

Dr. Maye Doldolea graduated from Simon Fraser University and went on to the Illinois College of Optometry to receive her degree as a doctor of Optometry. She enjoys the challenge of working with complicated contact lens fi ttings and takes great pleasure in educating her patients on Computer Vision Syndrome. She enjoys seeing patients of all ages. Dr. Doldolea lives in Surrey and is married with two children. She enjoys a healthy lifestyle with her family which includes golf, snowboarding, camping and cycling or scootering around Vancouver

D.W. Poppy Second-ary School has received funding from the prov-ince’s civil forfeiture program towards its Social Thinking for At-Risk Students (STARS) project.

STARS is receiving $9,800 that will allow up to 70 at-risk stu-dents to participate in a program designed to help them develop stronger social, com-munication, and cop-

ing skills. The program activities will include facilitated group dis-cussions, role plays, guest speakers/pre-sentations and partici-pation in a mentorship program with elemen-

tary school students.“We are excited

about being grant-ed the opportunity to bring the STARS pro-gram to D.W. Poppy and our community schools,” said Dean Pacheo, vice-principal of D.W. Poppy.

“Funding will be going towards train-ing staff members in social thinking. They will then implement the program for the upcoming school year with a group of at-risk students. Our goal is to develop the social skills necessary to have a positive impact on their relationships with peers, adults, and the community as a whole.”

“Putting an end to violence in B.C. is a long-term goal, and youth outreach is ab-solutely essential to achieving it,” said Fort Langley-Aldergrove MLA Rich Coleman. “Learning how to build healthy relationships starts at a young age.”

Love fi lm? Why not plan to be among the fi rst to see new work from up-and-com-ing fi lmmakers on April 13 at Cinergy, the 10th annual stu-dent fi lm festival, from Trinity Western University’s School of the Arts, Media + Culture (SAMC).

Film students from SAMC’s Media + Communication pro-gram have fused their artistry and education to create the short fi lms screening on cam-pus in the Northwest Audito-rium.

An assortment of genres — from comedy and drama to documentary and experimen-tal — are represented in the festival’s lineup, with some-thing for every fi lm lover.

Romantic comedy fans will enjoy Emet, the story of a per-son living with obsessive com-

pulsive disorder who needs to learn to let go and love.

Breakage, an experimental fi lm, reveals the beauty of en-tropy and things falling apart. Igloo is a coming-of-age story about an immigrant girl’s fi rst day of school.

The ubiquitous selfi e is featured in a fi lm comprised of submitted footage from around the world. The group of students behind the Jidori Motion Selfi e Challenge (Jidori means “to take a photo of yourself” in Japanese) aims to highlight the beauty and diversity found in people and places.

“The Cinergy student fi lm festival is the result of a pres-sure cooker, real-world model of fi lmmaking where students have to produce, write, shoot, direct, edit, and market their

fi lms within a tight budget and a ‘drop dead’ time lim-it,” said Kevin Schut, chair of the SAMC Media + Commu-nication department. “That they can pull off quality fi lms within these limits is a testa-ment to their talent and work ethic.”

Festival-goers will vote for the Audience Favourite Award, with other awards adjudicated by professionals from Vancouver’s fi lm and TV industry.

Cinergy is presented as part of SAMC’s Festival of the Arts, Media + Culture with support from Flying Horse Design Stu-dio.

It takes place on Monday, April 13 at 7:30 p.m. at North-west Auditorium (TWU). Ad-mission by donation ($2 sug-gested).

Cast members of Walnut Grove Secondary’s Theatre in the Grove recently gave the Langley board of education a preview of their production of Mary Poppins The Broadway Musical.The family-friendly play will be on stage at WGSS April 9-11 and 16-18 at 7 p.m., with a Saturday matinee on April 18 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $15 adults and $12 seniors and students.

SOMETHING FOR EVERY FILM LOVER

A Practically Perfect Production

BRENDA ANDERSONTimes Reporter

With acts ranging from hip hop to lyrical dance, a rapper, a pair of heart-stopping aerial acts, more than a dozen musical performances and even a slam poet, the fi fth and fi nal Langley Has Talent compe-tition, held at Christian Life Assembly on Saturday, was a variety show in the truest form of the word.

Judged by talent agent Jolienne Moore, TV and fi lm actor Michael Roberds and musician Leah Emmott, the fi eld of 23 semifi nalists was narrowed to 12 acts that will return to the stage at CLA on April 18 to compete for a top prize of $2,500 in cash as well as a range of industry prizes.

“The judges deliberated for an hour af-ter the show, trying to narrow down the fi eld and, in the end, got a lineup that will certainly provide a highly entertaining show that will highlight Langley’s talent level,” said master of ceremonies and Langley Rotarian, Peter Luongo.

Among those heading through to the fi nals will be trapeze artist Caitlyn Mck-enzie and silk aerialist Amanda Wormald, both of whom wove their magic high above the stage, without benefi t of a har-ness or a net.

Returning for the third time, rapper Josh G. kicked it old school with a mash-up that included the theme from the Fresh Prince of Bel Air, while newcomer, spoken word artist Rachel Sault, personifi ed a cork speaking to a wine bottle in a poem that featured plenty of clever turns of phrase.

Among the vocalists advancing, Haley

Bouey, returning for her third year, per-formed a rendition of Patsy Cline’s Crazy,which the judges called “perfection.”

The Horvat Family, a three-piece en-semble that is becoming well known for performing at charitable events around Langley, gave a rousing rendition of the Johnny Cash hit, Jackson.

“Even the ‘fan favourite’ was a neck-and-neck race, with fewer than 10 votes making a difference in the audience’s choice,” Luongo said.

In the end, the crowd selected Trinity, a trio of female vocalists who sang Chris-tina Aguilera’s 1940s-style swing tune, Candyman, to go through to the fi nal com-petition.

“This was the best audience to date,” said Luongo. “There was clearly a great atmosphere in the building and the per-formers very much fed off of the energy.”

In addition to the 13 fi nalists, the April 18 show will feature guest performanc-es from last year’s winners, “A Guy and a Girl” — Jesse and Kathleen, as well as instructors from Langley’s Cirque school, where two of this year’s fi nalists were trained.

Presented by Langley’s four Rotary clubs, the annual contest, which began in the spring of 2011, is intended to draw attention to the need for a dedicated per-forming arts facility in the Langleys.

Tickets are on sale for the LHT fi nals on Saturday, April 18 at Christian Life Assem-bly. They are $20 each, available online at langleyhastalent.com or at the Langley Times offi ce, 20258 Fraser Hwy.

LHT FINALS HIT STAGE AT CLA ON APRIL 18


Langley is invited to ring in the spring with a series of performanc-es by the musicians of Trinity Western Univer-sity’s School of the Arts, Media + Culture (SAMC).

On April 4, the choirs of TWU present Journey to the Cross.

SAMC’s concert choir, chamber choir, cham-ber singers, and master-works chorus present a refl ective and poignant collection of works to suit the mood of Holy Saturday.

One hundred sing-ers perform pieces from the Renaissance to present day, includ-ing 10 Canadian works, two of which are ar-rangements by direc-tor of choral activities, Joel Tranquilla, and one original composi-tion, The Peace of God, by SAMC dean David Squires.

Other highlights in-clude a world premiere of Nyne otpushchayeshi (a setting of the Song of Simeon, Luke 2, in Church Slavonic) by Ontario composer Jeff

Enns, and Frank Mar-tin’s Mass for Double Choir.

“The Mass for Double Choir is an exquisite-ly beautiful work that has become a modern masterwork of the cho-ral repertoire, and one of the most important mass settings of the 20th century,” Tranquil-la said.

•••On April 10 and 11,

get a taste of Italy at It-aly Amore, featuring the SAMC orchestra and a guest performance by the award-winning SAMC piano trio.

Coached by Heilwig von Koenigsloew, the trio of violin, cello, and

piano will perform Jo-hannes Brahms’ ro-mantic Piano Trio No. 3 in C minor followed by Paul Schoenfi eld’s CaféMusic, a complex and lively blend of classical and jazz.

The SAMC Orchestra performs an Italian op-era favourite, Overture to The Barber of Seville by Gioachino Rossini, con-ducted by a fourth-year music major, Abbots-ford’s Rob Workman.

The concerts are pre-sented as part of TWU’s Festival of the Arts, Me-dia + Culture with sup-port from Flying Horse Design Studio.

Journey to the Cross begins at 7:30 p.m. on

Saturday, April 4 at Wil-loughby Christian Re-formed Church, 20525 72 Ave. Tickets are $15 each or a special fam-ily group rate of $30. Students are invited to attend on a pay-what-you-can basis. Get tick-ets from www.twu.ca/samc or at the door.

Italy Amore will be held on Friday, April 10 at Shepherd of the Val-ley Lutheran Church, 20097 72 Ave. and on Saturday, April 11 at Peace Lutheran Church, 2029 Ware St., Abbots-ford.

Concerts begin at 7:30 p.m. with admission by donation ($10 suggest-ed).

TWU choirs, orchestra celebrate Easter and Italy CONCERTS OFFER RANGE OF WORKS AS PART OF FESTIVAL OF ARTS, MEDIA + CULTURE

Lines of Endeavour, a group show at the Fort Gallery by members of the Open Studio, will be on display at the artists’ co-operative gallery in Fort Langley from Wednesday, April 1 to Sunday, April 19

Lines of Endeavour is a collection of work by 10 local artists from the Open Studio community art education program.

The aim of Open Studio is to provide moral sup-port, technical help and honest critique to ama-teur artists so that they can continue to develop and explore their own ideas, methods and ma-terials.

The lines of endeavour within this Open Studio group are many.

Each artist’s life and exploration of it through their art are ostensibly linear journeys. However, the exchange that Open Studio provides means that these lines bend, interact overlap and divide, providing a supportive network.

Open Studio sessions have a refrain: ‘This is so hard!’ (just as any honest endeavour should be). There is no fi nal arrival or product and each new endeavour poses new problems and challenges.

“It would seem that making art is about as goal-less as housework. However, for most members the process itself is the reward — constant space to improve, be enlightened, discover new ways of doing and seeing,” reads a statement released by Open Studio.

The exhibit’s opening reception is Saturday, April 4, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. Gallery hours are Wednesday to Sunday, from noon to 5 p.m. For more information, visit the web site at www.fort-gallery.ca.

An artistic endeavour

On the fi rst Thursday of each month the Fort Gallery hosts a variety of visual art-ists, writers and poets, and musicians from the local community who share their gifts and creations with an audience at no charge.

The next First Thursday event will be held on April 2 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. with lo-cal folk musician, Simon Trev-elyan.

The evening will also fea-ture a performance piece by artist Myrna Pfeifer and an artist’s talk by members of the Open Studio, who will be

exhibiting at the Fort Gallery at that time (see story this page).

These events form part of the Fort Gallery’s ongoing mission to encourage and support local contemporary artists and to engage the pub-lic in art that pushes bound-aries.

The Fort Gallery is located at 9048 Glover Rd. Call 604-888-7411.

Email [email protected] for more details or visit the web site at fortgallery.ca. Gal-lery hours are Wednesday to Sunday, from noon to 5 p.m.

Folk musician Simon Trevelyan will be the featured artist at the April 2 First Thursday event at the Fort Gallery. The evening will also include a performance piece by Myrna Pfeifer.

When it came to tournament play, the Langley Blazers always seemed to excel.

And the Langley Cup was no differ-ent.

Seeded ninth out of the nine teams in the fi eld, the Blazers lost their fi rst game, but then ran the table, reeling off fi ve straight wins to capture the Langley Cup midget division champi-onship.

The team was also able to avenge their lone loss off the double-elimi-nation house hockey tournament, de-feating Langley LY1 7-3 in the champi-onship fi nal on March 15 at the George Preston Recreation Centre.

“They were missing a couple of their better players and didn’t seem to have the usual jump in their game,” said Blazers coach Frank Sever.

“Our team was fi ring on all cylinders however, and came out playing hard.”

The Blazers scored early and were up 2-0 after one period and 5-0 after 40 minutes.

Sever said the roster, from top to bottom, came through during the Cup run.

“They should all be proud of their performance — I know I am — and

completely deserved the win.”The win caps off a season that got

off to a slow start.“The fi rst eight games saw us strug-

gle as the team got to know each other,” Sever said, adding that a tour-nament in Cloverdale seemed to be a turning point for the squad.

“That brought the crew together and we started to play as a team. We placed second in that tournament, losing in overtime,” he said.

“(But) from there on, the team was solid and played well throughout the rest of the year.”

The team did well against teams from outside Langley during league play, but struggled against their fellow LMHA squads, hence being seeded ninth out of the nine teams for the Langley Cup competition.

“The Langley Cup is sort of the Stan-ley Cup of house hockey,” Sever said. “The players are all proud and excited to be named the Cup champions. It gives them bragging rights until next year and then the competition begins all over again.

“According to my son, other tourna-ment wins pale in comparison.”

The Blazers played in three tourna-ments during the season, recording only four losses in 17 games.


Colby Walker played hero as his late goal broke a 1-1 tie and helped the Langley Ea-gles capture the Lang-ley Cup.

Walker’s late goal sent the Eagles to a 2-1 victory over Lang-ley LY5 in the bantam Cup fi nal on March 15 at the George Preston Recreation Centre.

“It was a great game to be a part of and was evidenced by the qual-ity of hockey that is played at a house level

in Langley,” said Eagles coach Greg Fuchs.

“Both goalies (Josh Diebert and Kevin Craig) played great and there were sever-al chances, including a few goal posts.”

It was a clean game as well, the coach said, as each team was whistled for just one infraction.

“Our season went well, being very com-petitive all year with close fi nishes in both the league play and playoffs,” the coach added.

And to cap it off with a Cup victory is special.

“I feel that the Lang-ley Cup may be more important to the kids than any other tourna-ment,” Fuchs said.

“Teams change play-ers every year and so many kids know each other that the compet-itive nature comes out in most of them.

“They see each other at school, soccer, base-ball, ball hockey, etc. and get to remind their friends that this was their year for the Lang-ley Cup.”

Mountain Secondary School. With school back in session this week, the high school rugby season will resume in Langley as the local schools look to qualify for the Fraser Valley championships.

Xander Andreone netted the win-ning goal with less than three min-utes to play, sending the Langley Spitfi res to a 3-2 come-from-behind victory in the Langley atom Cup championship game.

The game against the Langley Snipers was tied at two in the late stages of the third period on March

15 at the George Preston Recreation Centre.

The two teams were meeting in the fi nals of the Langley Minor Hockey Association’s house division play-offs.

Andreone had also opened the scoring and after the Spitfi res fell behind 2-1, Sycher Kooner tied the game at two.

This is the second straight year

coach Darcy Frederick — as well as some of the players — won the atom division championship.

“The Langley Cup was a great win for the team as we had a somewhat disappointing playoffs in league play,” Frederick said.

The team went 2-2-1 in the playoffs to fi nish third after winning the reg-ular season league banner at 7-2-1.

Overall, the season has been suc-

cessful. In addition to the Langley Cup and regular season title, the Spitfi res won a tournament in Squa-mish and lost in a shootout in the fi nals of another tournament in Se-attle.

“Our goal at the beginning of the year was to facilitate the growth of the players as a team and individu-al skill level while enjoying the great game,” Frederick said.


After a close call in the semifi nals, the Langley Wolves were determined not to let the opportunity to win the Langley Cup slip away.

“We faced a very stout ef-fort in our semifi nal that reminded us how hard we need to work to achieve our goals,” said Wolves coach Chris Brawdy.

“Simple lessons like these can really galvanize a team

and we were not going to get out-hustled in the fi nal.”

The Wolves defeated the Langley Fury 6-3 in the championship fi nal of the peewee division of the Lang-ley Cup on March 15 at the George Preston Recreation Centre.

This was the second straight year Brawdy coached his team to the Cup championship.

After falling behind 1-0, the Wolves scored three straight goals and never

looked back.Luca Guiotto opened the

scoring with an absolute la-ser of a shot over the goal-tender’s shoulder and the Wolves were well on their way.

Guiotto scored twice while Henry Brawdy had a hat trick. Eric Lim had the team’s other goal.

The Fury did cut the lead to 3-2 after one period, but they could never get the equalizer.

Shaine Hoy, Curtis Goode

and Gavin Drake scored for the Fury.

“We knew as a team that if we were able to approach the Langley Cup in solidari-ty with our leaders commit-ted to staying disciplined and our younger players committed to challenging themselves to make great hockey plays, we would win,” Brawdy said.

The coach said goaltender Jordyn Verbeek, as well as players Henry Brawdy and Karan Athwal stood out in

the championship game.The Cup championship

wraps up a successful sea-son for the hockey team. They won one tournament in Chase and lost in the shootout in the fi nals of an-other in Seattle.

Overall, the team sported a record of 34-5-7-1.

“We were blessed to have a good group of kids who enjoyed playing hockey, im-proving their skills and en-couraging each other,” the coach said.
